Perfect lead tone

[Naren]

Awesome video and great tone. That dude has the most awesome playing style.

[Rev Drucifer]

A tone many fully grown men will enjoy.


When he goes to the neck pick-up, he gets a really Petrucci-ish tone.

Outstanding player!

[darren]

Yup, that's pretty much a perfect example of a great lead tone. Great playing, too.

Just listened to his solo album for the first time. Wow! All his work is so tasteful. Not once did I think he was going over the top. Unbelievable!!

That lead tone is *very* reminiscent of Andy Timmon's.

Marco's playing is beautiful, by the way.

THIS. I love it when players know how to deploy pickups. Michael romeo is another example who flips to his bridge to sustain a bend.

It's like a slightly more metal Timmons, I agree.

Marco's said a bunch of times that he's a huge Timmons fan, so it's not surprising.

Yeah, you can hear it in his playing... which is probably why I dig the shit out of his playing so much.

Just bought his course on jamtrackcentral.com. Hopefully I can nab some of his style
